vant In The House" was his first
work to attract serious attention
when it opened at the Savoy
Theatre, New York, just 40 years
ago on Monday, March 23, 1908.
Two actors closely identified with
that first production were Walter
Hampden and Tyrone Power
(father of the screen star). The
female lead was played by Edith
Wynne Matthison, noted Amer
ican actress, and incidentally, the
wife of the playwright.
Johannes Directs
lieturning to the current Actors'
Lab production, Don Johannes,
the director, Rives several reasons
for choosing this play for prcscn
tation: a small cast and single
setting, simplifying technical
problems; seven roles which all
provide good acting parts, with
no "walk-ons" or extraneous
minor characters; and an illus
tration of alegory and ethical pur
pose combined with interesting
theatrical effect.
In the cast, Jack Asbyll, Omaha
freshman, is playing his first lead
as Manson. Jack was seen in a
supporting role in "Return to
Surigo." Norm Leger, appearing
as the Vicar, previously worked
in "The Petrified Forest." Merle
Stalder, Robert, has played sup
porting roles in "MacBeth," "Pyg
malion," and "Children of the
Moon." Clare Denton was seen
as Joans younger brother in
"Joan of Lorraine" this season.
All four of these men also ap
peared this week in "The Taming
of the Shrew."
First Appearance Here

graduate, is 'new to the University

duction of "The Barretts of Wim
pole Street.' Appearing as Auntie,
Betty Laird is another transfer
student, having played Mrs. Man
ningham in "Angel Street" r
